Neil Bhatt Opens Up About Mentoring Child Actors

MUMBAI-Television actor Neil Bhatt has spoken about his responsibility toward child actors, saying he wants young performers to learn the right way to navigate the entertainment industry.

The actor said working with child actors in his show, ‘Mr. and Mrs. Parshuram’, has reinforced the importance of patience, guidance and being present for them.

Neil shared, “Father’s Day always reminds me of the quiet strength, patience, and unconditional love that fathers bring into our lives. Playing a father in ‘Mr. and Mrs. Parshuram’ has given me a deeper appreciation for that role. Sharing screen space with my on-screen children, Raanav and Mahi, has been one of the most rewarding parts of this journey. Their innocence, honesty, and boundless energy are a constant reminder that children value your presence more than anything else. Through our scenes together, I’ve realized how important it is to be patient, attentive, and fully present in the moment.”

Speaking about children working in the industry, he added, “Children who grow up in the industry usually mature early. I want to make sure that children who I work with get to learn the correct way to deal with the industry.”

The actor also said the experience has made him reflect on his own upbringing and appreciate the lessons taught by his father.

“In many ways, this experience has also made me reflect on my own father and appreciate the countless sacrifices and life lessons that often go unnoticed when we’re growing up. Today, I value those memories and teachings more than ever,” he said. (IANS)
